Stars do not shine without thermonuclear fusion, which is the star’s
internal process where hydrogen turns into helium, releasing energy
that travels throughout the plasma sphere’s interior before radiating
out into outer space, for all to see.
That is the story of the shine behind the star.
You wouldn’t see the star without thermonuclear fusion, just as in real life, you
don’t see the star without the shine.
Now that you know the story behind the star, meet the NBA’s Thermonuke
Team, the ones who make the stars radiate.
None of these 15 men—nor the five starters we spotlight—have ever gone to
an All-Star Game, and they may never get that recognition.
They don’t put up fancy fantasy basketball stats like 20 points with 10
rebounds or 10 assists.
But they do fill up the plus-minus charts with positivity.
They also fill their team’s locker room with the same element.
And when you get right down to it, all 15 of these men are flat-out winners—
some the MVPs of their teams, though they’d be the last to toot their own
horns that way.
The Thermonuke squad is content knowing individually, each is one of the big
reasons their teams shine collectively.
